This year, Mother’s Day 2018 falls on Sunday 11th March. It’ll come around soon enough, so pencil it into your diary and start making plans! Arguably one of the most important days of the year, it is a chance to show your wonderful mum just how much you love and appreciate her. It’s an opportunity to pamper her, spoil her rotten, and treat her to something that is just as special as she is. But what exactly do you buy for the woman that has done and will do anything in the world for you?

Saturday is Random Act of Kindness Day! Bet you didn’t have that one in your diary…

First introduced by the Random Act of Kindness Association (RAK) in 1995, it is a day for altruism; twenty-four hours to perform at least one selfless act that will put a smile on someone’s face. It’s often the smallest things that can have the biggest impact. Someone might help you to open a door when your hands are full or treat you to cake for no apparent reason, and suddenly, life seems that little bit better. According to RAK, such random acts of kindness have the power to change how people see and experience the world – and they can also have a positive effect on the giver!

A charm bracelet is not just a piece of jewellery; it’s a story. Each individual charm, link, and bead has a unique meaning, perhaps marking a significant milestone or special occasion in the wearer’s life and celebrating their main accomplishments. There is nothing more personal and symbolic. A charm bracelet is a completely individual accessory, and for that reason, it often holds a very dear place in a woman’s heart. She’ll wear it with pride, draw people’s attention with its signature jingle, and tell anyone who cares to listen what each little charm and quirky bead represents.

People are different, especially when it comes to fashion. We all have our own unique sense of style, personal tastes, and individual preferences. One woman’s dream wedding dress is another woman’s nightmare. High-heeled shoes are pretty and stylish to one woman, but impractical and ridiculous to another. A necklace is too plain and simple for one lady but may seem extravagant and over-the-top to somebody else. Why? Because we are all individuals!

Today is National Compliment Day. Yes, this really is a thing! It’s thought to be the brainchild of two ladies back in 1998; as firm believers in the power of the compliment, they asked that everyone made an effort for just one day – the 24th January - and challenged people to say something nice to a friend, colleague, or relative. Let’s face it, it feels good when someone pays us a compliment. It cheers us up, boosts our confidence, and gives us a warm, fuzzy feeling inside. According to researchers, it can even improve our performance on certain tasks.

Vivienne Westwood stole the show once again last week at London Fashion Week (LFW) Men’s AW18. Rather than staging a traditional catwalk-style fashion show, the designer presented her unisex range using a short film called ‘Don’t Get Killed’. The theme was war. Models marched about, waving flags and talking about their commitment to the Westwood Army. The clothes were military-inspired and featured lots of camouflage and tartan patterns. There was also a big focus on colour, including traditional army red and Mountbatten – a shade of pink first introduced during WW2.
